The pride of Cantabria. Racing de Santander are one of northern Spain's most historic clubs, with over a century of football history and a passionate fanbase on the Cantabrian coast. El Sardinero is one of Spain's most atmospheric grounds, and the green and white of Racing carries the spirit of a proud footballing city.

History

Founded in 1913, Racing de Santander are one of Spain's oldest clubs and spent significant periods in La Liga throughout the 20th century. Their most successful modern era came in the late 1990s and 2000s when they competed consistently in La Liga under coaches including Marcelino, finishing as high as sixth in the top flight.

The club suffered a dramatic collapse in the early 2010s following financial mismanagement under controversial owner Ahsan Ali Syed, dropping through the divisions before beginning a long rebuild. Racing have since climbed all the way back, winning La Liga 2 in 2026 to return to the top flight for the first time since 2012, backed by a loyal Cantabrian fanbase that never abandoned the club during its darkest years.

Kit History & Colours

Green and white — the Verdiblancos colours worn with Cantabrian pride. Racing de Santander's home kit is one of the most distinctive in northern Spanish football, and the green and white combination has been a constant throughout the club's 110-year history. Fresh, bold, and unmistakably Racing.

Their kits carry the identity of a club that has weathered enormous storms and emerged with its spirit intact, and the green and white of Racing is worn with real passion by a fanbase that has shown extraordinary loyalty through the club's difficult years.
